SRM Motor Rotor pole

Hello,

I'm trying to do a speed control on an SRM motor. While defining the SRM block, the rotor poles, P is an input parameter. While P could be the number of rotor poles, the help description states that P is the number of rotor pole PAIRS. So if i'm using a 8 rotor pole motor do i define P as 8 or 4, as 4 being 4 rotor pole pairs ?

As help description states "P is the number of rotor pole pairs", if you are using 8 rotor pole motor then you have to define P as 4.

Hi Keyur, thank you for your response. I checked with the MATLAB team and they said it is the number of rotor poles. The document description has the error stating that P is the pole pairs, but it actually is the number of poles

Let me know if you had question about Synchronous Reluctance Machine block. If not please give me the details of the block you are talking about.
